Streets Of My Past - Identity X



Our past comes rushing back
With the rustle of the leaves.
Do you recall all the dreams we had?
All the love lost and memories
Do you remember our last words?
Can you recall the hopes we had to confide?
Does the autumn air bring it rushing back,
To those streets of our past
The streets we tread tonight.

Walking these childhood streets
Searching unconsciously
My past the concrete
That’s following me
Still I scream for the past though
Its not coming back no,
There’s no one to listen
To the cries of these streets

What have we done?
What is to become?
Of all the things for which we lived
Their already gone
And it’s amazing how we didn’t realize
Just how special were those simple times
Those days have come and gone yet still we hold on

Walking these childhood streets
Searching unconsciously
My past the concrete
That’s following me
Still I scream for the past though
Its not coming back no,
There’s no one to listen
To the cries of these streets

Walk slow I don’t want to forget this
Fall breeze, fills me with recollections
Our lives, true friends, an old relationship
I thought it was lost but I know that it’s still inside

My one
True love
Was here
My past

Leave me here I'll be fine tomorrow
One more breath of the air tonight
Just one more breath and I'll remember
Trust found beneath this same night sky

We left these things so far behind
And we were so young
Sadly I know that it’s all behind me
Just like the streets we’ve walked

…The streets of our past…
